Hello,
It seems that 09/09, the sendmail was working fine, but not on 09/16.
What was happenning in between these dates: software updates, your
changes?
Now I get
systemctl start sendmail.service
[ ... ]
Sep 30 23:08:29 Sappho sendmail[88774]: My unqualified host name (Sappho)
unknown; sleeping for retry
Sep 30 23:09:15 Sappho systemd[1]: sendmail.service: start operation timed out.
Terminating.
[ ... ]
I have in
/etc/hostname
Sappho
in /etc/host.conf
multi on
in /etc/hosts
# Loopback entries; do not change.
# For historical reasons, localhost precedes localhost.localdomain:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
I also run sendmail. The only config differences between your 3
files above and mine (apart from comments, and my hostname) is
in the first line of /etc/hosts:
yours:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
mine:
127.0.0.1 <my.hostname> localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4
localhost4.localdomain4
What does typing 'hostname -f' give on your computer? If it results in
an error, I'd try adding 'Sappho', which seems to be your hostname,
after '127.0.0.1' in the line above, and leave the rest unchanged. Then
again: 'hostname -f' - if that still gives errors, I'd either restart
sendmail, or whatever. Even better: I'd reboot ...
Good luck!
